Finally got it installed, thanks to Tyler AKA Rynberg for the pics of the install, it was a much easier install than I expected.

 

Nice Kai, glad you got it all done. Was it tricky to install the lines/t-stat with the v-mount?

 

It was'nt that bad actually, the lines just stay right by the swaybar and out of the way of the fans, preety much the same way it is mounted with a the radiator in the stock location.

 

What kinda temps do you see in the summer up there?

 

Glad to see this project is still coming along!

 

looks great! is there anyway to install them without having to hack off the ends of the bumper support, though?

 

I think he did that so that his bumper would clear.

 

You do not have to hack up anything to install the kit, except for a little chunk out of the undertray to clear one line. The rebar modifications there are for the bumper install.

 

Highest temps here is about 80 but feels more like a 100, I did this mod so when I move back to cali car will be prepared to see track duties..

 

Looks very nice. Have you been monitoring oil and coolant temps, for before and after comparisons?


-s-

 

I love how you cut (neatly) the bumper support. I will be adding these after i finish my a1000 and 4" turbo back

 

Unfortunately I was not able to monitor temps, I figured that it would be considerably cooler now, there are some threads where they have monitored difference in temps after install..

I know this is an old thread, but im having difficulties installing this kit on a factory car with stock...everything

I have all the old lines out, the cooler cores are secure and im having the hardest time finding a way to have the thermostat housing and all the lines installed...the housing will not want fit in the area infront or beside the AC unit and is getting to close for belts as well as lenth of the line to connect to the oil filter pedistal is not long enough

 

Which kit did you get, the lines are'nt usually from the pedestal...

 

Im not sure exactly, it was a second hand kit...came with some type of moroso unit, which i dont think i will be putting in...as it is mostly a daily driver!!! Did you have a AC in your car? and where did you mount the thermostat housing/lines at? pics? Thanks...

 

PM Rynberg, he might still have all the pics that he sent me....Or PM Rotaryextreme...he is back making the oil coolers...

 

Unfortunatly, it seems that Rynberg does not roam around the forums anymore. Ben (RotaryExtreme) seems to have not been online for quite sometime as well, how odd. PM me if you want Ben's contact information, he's a really good friend of mine and I'm pretty sure he will be more than happy to help.

 

Thanks, yeah if you can PM me the info if its different then what is on their website, I just e-mailed them for help with pics of the install!!!

Thanks...

 

Nice, only took you 3 years to put them on though! When are you moving back down?

 

Check the date kyle,LOL
